Simply titled, “Alone,” this black and white photograph taken somewhere in India by Lecercle, is somber and powerful. You can almost feel the little girl’s loneliness as she plays by herself at the seaside in this strangely empty boat.

Here’s a random street art shot taken by Mister Rad while in Soho Square. Looking almost like two separate pictures, I’d say he did a marvelous job with depth of field. And both sides leave me asking questions. Like, what’s the triangle doing on the multi-colored brick and where are all those people heading? Perhaps the answers are far too obvious for those who have spent any time in London, but I’ve only experienced a layover at Heathrow.

Local favorite localsurfer gets yet another POTD from us with this lovely shot of the Eiffel Tower. Not content to shoot the tower from a distance and to align the shot like every postcard you’ve ever seen…and certainly not content to put some family member in front with a big awful smile, he gives us this odd angle shot the likes of which you’ve probably never seen before. You know it’s the Eiffel, but you’re not exactly sure which part.

Today’s Photo of the Day is one that I probably should have left for Neil to select because he actually lived in Dublin for a while. But too bad. It’s mine. It’s a simple concept, and one I’ve seen before in various posters you can buy (even in Dublin). It’s a sequence of colorful doors, in this case of Dublin homes, but despite its simplicity, I really like it.
The array of colors, especially the orange one, is quite mesmerizing. And as a nice touch, the photographer, Mister Rad, left some people in one of the shots. I imagine that the facades of these homes are all quite similar, and so the people who live in them sought to use the color of their doors to differentiate the homes in the neighborhood. Just my suspicion, but cool whatever the case.

If this isn’t a precious moment, then I don’t know what is… Captured by Jason Bechtel while strolling through the Chicago Zoo, this ape seems to be paying no mind to anyone though I’m sure there were many staring with big bright eyes at the sleeping animal. I’d say this is a perfect example of how I’d like to be spending my own Saturday afternoon, but the call of duty keeps me up and awake unlike this ape.
